    Pulsant - Powering IT, today announced that its Enterprise Cloud and Enterprise Cloud
VDC service has achieved VMware vCloud(R) Powered
[http://www.vmware.com/products/vcloud/overview.html ] status, illustrating to customers
that the company's cloud services are underpinned by VMware's leading virtualization and
cloud computing technology, namely VMware vSphere(R) and VMware vCloud(R) Director(TM). A
member of the VMware Service Provider Program (VSPP), the Enterprise Cloud and Enterprise
Cloud VDC VMware vCloud Powered service delivers a set of cloud computing services across

unlimited scalability, total flexibility, quicker access and processing. Our customer
trails have recorded a 40-50% increase in speed and 20% reduction in power usage."

    "The VMware vCloud(R) Powered program was developed to enable our service provider
partners to differentiate themselves and help them bring their enterprise-class cloud
services to market in this competitive landscape," said Gavin Jackson, director, vCloud &
Service Providers, EMEA, VMware. "We look forward to supporting Pulsant further as it
delivers on the agility and performance customers are looking for in the cloud computing
landscape."

    Customers of Pulsant have the ability to move workloads from their VMware
vSphere-based virtualized or private cloud environment to the VMware vCloud Powered

agility.
